Description

Lignoceric Acid-D3 is a stable isotope-labeled analog of the saturated very long-chain fatty acid, lignoceric acid. This deuterated compound is essential for use as an internal standard in quantitative mass spectrometry, ensuring unparalleled accuracy in analytical measurements. It is primarily utilized by researchers and quality control laboratories in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and clinical diagnostics industries for metabolic studies, lipidomics, and biomarker discovery.

Application

• Internal Standard for Quantitative Analysis: Serves as a critical reference standard in LC-MS and GC-MS for the precise quantification of endogenous lignoceric acid in biological samples.
• Metabolic Pathway Tracing: Used in deuterium-labeling studies to investigate fatty acid metabolism, elongation, and degradation pathways.
• Biomarker Research: Enables accurate measurement of lignoceric acid levels in plasma or tissue, relevant for studies on peroxisomal disorders like adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD).
• Pharmaceutical Development: Supports pharmacokinetic and bioanalytical studies for drug candidates targeting lipid metabolism.
• Lipidomics: A key component in high-throughput lipid profiling to understand lipid composition and its role in health and disease.
• Quality Control & Method Validation: Essential for developing and validating robust analytical methods in clinical and research laboratories.
